right second day with my new slx 22 - f'in love it! Alex sent me some replacement nuts, after 3 of em broke on the first day and i have ensured they were as lose as possible but tight enough to hold the pole.
Its much stronger and more rigid than the RT zensor flex fishing pole i used to use, although a bit heavier.
When extended, the weight is not that noticeable, as the slx is quite rigid where as the fishing pole used to flex a bit so you used to feel the kinetic and potential energy of the brush head.
When shortened for ground floor, the pole still feel a bit alien to me, rather heavy but i suppose it would seeing as im not just using 1 fishing pole section.
Im also able to put a lot more force behind the scrubbing action (cos the pole is not bending), because of the rigidity, which also helps a great deal on the clean.
Looking forward to the next week using it...
